And how were the rotors used differently for AOE Drift?

Yes, Thrilling 30 Springer and Whirl, Studio Series Blackout, combiner wars Stormclash, and Age of Extinction Drift.

i don't have Skyhammer, so I'm agreeing with your points regarding the rotors for him with Drift

Cool, I reread andI get it now, you were referring to the mold, I thought there was a different functin for Drift specifically. But yeah, that toys is truly awesome.

My top 5:
1. Generations Voyager Springer: Easily hands down not only the best rendition of G1 Springer, but the best 'copter bot period. For a voyager class, transformation and articulations are spot on and the weapons are nice.
2. Titans Return Highbrow: For a deluxe class, well articulated, weapons are nice, robot mode and copter mode is spectacular. Best recreation of G1 Highbrow.
3. CW Alpha Bravo/Blades/Vortex: Again, for a deluxe class, well articulated, both robot and copter modes are great, and limb modes works.
4. TF 2010 Tomahawk: For the same reasons as Highbrow and Alpha Bravo above, only without the Titans Return/CW gimmicks.
5. Cybertron Evac: Well designed, well articulated, transformation works. Not much else to say.

If that Dropkick were to be recolored into a light blue, and maybe given a new head, it would make a decent Whirl.

As for Perfectvision and Zero: Springer is an amazing toy that has a really cool design for his copter mode that can also become an armored car and robot. The wheels in the shoulders and lower legs are good and fun, I love that design cue for my bots. He doesn't need to be realistic, he never has been, he's always had some Cybertronian copter mode, it's part of who he is.


I'll consider his humanoid is compromized,but for a car!Keep him in copter and that's all.Skyhammer look good,probably deserve his number 1 spot but i didn't investigate much.

He's small, too much clear plastic, fiddly transformation, posing is somewhat limited, colors are inaccurate and off, not really a good match for onscreen, and he will not sit right in copter mode and he has a really wide crotch in robot mode.

Overall, not fond of him very much.

i really, really like him.

AH-1W Super Cobra


-the alt mode is designed super accurately to the IRL.
-his bot mode IMO, is fun.
-his hips are a bit wide, but forgivable.
-love the clear canopy.
-LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the transformation. pure genius!
-he sits perfectly in copter mode. maybe u did something off.
-since he only has one alt mode, coloring is limited. He is the right color for the films copter mode.

-as for onscreen looks, not even Bumblebee has pulled that off!
-my only issue is the engine plating has nowhere to lock in AND during transformation, they keep popping off.
-as to his size; this copter is small IRL and it is perfectly in scale with SS Blackout.

I really like Tomahawk.
I Reformatted him into my interpretation of
Shattered Glass Whirl.
